Publisher DTP Crew

This is one of many short video segments which will be added to the Digital Tipping Point (DTP) archive. This series of segments features me, Christian Einfeldt, giving a keynote presentation to the OpenOffice.org Conference in Berlin in 2004. I really hesitate to put this footage up on the Archive for several reasons. First, arrogance is the kiss of death to a free open source project, and I am reluctant to do anything that makes it look as if this film or this segment is about me, which it's not. Due to the small budget nature of our project, we are doing the expedient thing and using my travels as a lens for looking at the cultural implications of the global shift to free open source software. So we are loading this footage onto the archive because we might need it, and we are actually using the Archive for our back-up library, as well as a means to communicate among our team members, who are all over the globe.

Thanks to Paul Donahue for the camera work on these segments (and most of our footage) and thanks to Jonathan Grindstaff for doing a great job of clean up of the rough footage.
